School Supervisors in South Korea's Special Education Support Centers: Legal Duties and Preparation for Their Supervisory Responsibilities
Choi, Nari; Shin, Mikyung
International Journal of Special Education, v32 n4 p784-792 2017
In 2001, the government of the Republic of Korea (South Korea) first established Special Education Support Centers (SESCs) to provide appropriate services to students identified as having disabilities based on Korean special education law. School supervisors in the local offices of education across the nation oversee the SESCs. Despite the important role of school supervisors in special education, challenges related to the management of the SESCs have been reported, including the supervisors in the local offices having to play too many roles and lacking professionalism. In this paper, we examine the legal duties of school supervisors overseeing the SESCs and provide recommendations for their preparation for those duties.
